Why Humans Couldn't Have Built the Great Giza Pyramids​

1. 1000 ton stones

Each stone is carved from granite rock in a shape, perfectly cuboid. Also, to carry those stones from the quarry to the construction site, workers had to cross the Nile. It's impossible for a human to move a 1000 ton stone and cross the river carrying it. Even if it were a group of humans who brought the rocks across the Nile, it still seems practically impossible.

2. Alignment of individual pyramids

All the three great pyramids of Giza face the exact North. The other three sides of the great pyramids face precisely East, West and South direction which means that when they built the pyramids, they had some sort of directional assistance. What's surprising is that there were no compasses, back at the time. How did the Egyptians calculate directions without an outsider's help? The question still baffles our mind.

3. Alignment of the three pyramids

All the three pyramids are linearly assigned. They all have an entrance, and about every monument, there is a conspiracy theory that the pyramids are interconnected by a secret web of tunnels. Taking our eye off the conspiracy theories, all three pyramids are said to be aligned with the three stars in the belt of Orion in such a way that the tip of all three pyramids points toward their respective stars.

4. Alignment of all historic sites around the globe

Different civilization sites that have been dug out are Giza, Siwa, Tassili n' Ajjer, Paratoari, Machupicchu, Ollantaytambo, Nazca, Easter Island, Aneityum Island, Preah Vihear, Sukhothai, Pyay, Khajuraho, Mohenjo Daro, Persepolis, Ur, and Petra.

"The Internal Ramp Theory for the Great Pyramid of Egypt is one of the most interesting ideas ever proposed for its construction. French architect Jean-Pierre Houdin has spent more than 20 years developing and refining this idea."

"In October of 2022, Houdin published an update to his theory which reflects the ScanPyramids findings from the past six years. The ScanPyramids ‘Big Void’ is an intriguing clue that Houdin may be correct with his notion of the Grand Gallery being used as a counterweight ramp for the largest pyramid stones."

"The ‘Big Void’ may be another Grand Gallery-like space which could be used for the same purpose. Institutional Egyptology remains unreceptive to Houdin’s publications, nor the extremely confident results from the ScanPyramids mission."

"This video takes a closer look at those conflicts, highlights some of Houdin’s new model, and proposes some areas that could use improvement"

The Unbelievable True Story Of How The Memphis Pyramid Became A Bass Pro Shops

The Memphis Pyramid began life as a basketball arena in 1991 before becoming a Bass Pro Shops in 2015.

The Tomb of Doom​

"High strangeness marked the Memphis Pyramid from the start. Before the ambitious construction project for a towering, steel pyramid on the banks of the Mississippi River broke ground in 1989, renderings included a glass elevator ride to the top that never appeared; a Hard Rock Cafe; a college football hall of fame; and a short-wave radio station capable of bouncing the city’s iconic blues and rock n’ roll sounds off the stratosphere and around the world."

"The Pyramid, some Memphians believed, would be the southern city’s answer to the St. Louis Arch, drawing visitors by the thousands and providing a riverside monument to rally around. But by the time the 321-foot tall building opened as a basketball arena in 1991, little remained of its original plans—save, except, the sixth largest pyramid on Earth and a mysterious crystal skull welded to its apex."

A Multimillion Dollar Catfish​

Catfishing is a sport akin to freshwater big game hunting. Those who fall under the spell of these whiskered giants soon revere them, worshipping catfish in the way coastal anglers might worship tuna or marlin. Like prized saltwater species, special hooks are often employed to ensure that catfish are humanely caught and released in good health. Trophy fish are often prized for their photo opportunities and then released.

Perhaps that allure is what drew Johnny Morris to make the bet, a gamble that would put more than $100 million from the City of Memphis and several times that amount from his own pocket on the table on that chilly November day. “Some people flip a coin for big decisions,” explains Morris. “But I told them if we catch a big catfish today, it’s meant to be. If we don’t, that’s a sign that maybe we better keep fishing and not worry about the Pyramid.”
